How was your weekend? What's up for the week?
Re: ~~HAPPY MONDAY!~~
I can't believe it's already Monday!
The weekend was jam-packed:
F - Sleep in, Costco and some errands during the day, BBQ at H's cousin's new home, got to see their house and new baby. She is a little sweetheart.
S - Gym in the am, beach time and BBQ at my bff's sister's house in San Juan Capistrano. Good food, strong drinks, hilarity ensued. Fun times.
Sun - Drive back from OC way too early, nap and then off to Arrowhead for a dinner at the summer home of a partner at H's work. Stunning home with views of the lake. Had some nice conversations with many of the attendees.
I'm exhausted though. I need a vacation from my 3 day weekend. This week I'm trying to catch up on sleep and I have a fun spa evening with some cool chicks later in the week.
I had a fun weekend!
Friday: Pool party
Sat: Party hopping in Newport
Sun: Death Cab at the Hollywood Bowl which was AMAZING.

This week is my last week of summer school and then I have Incubus in Vegas this weekend...just need to make it through!
I'm not ready to be back at work. This weekend was a blast.
Fri--lazy day around the house and then class at night
Sat-did a 5k with Sona (she was so cute and well behaved I wanted to cry
), baked a lot, and then went to a party and watched fireworks
Sunday--my brother flew in, we did Balboa for a while and hit the dog beach followed by lots of cocktails at home
This week I'm multitasking working wierd hours and entertaining while he is here. Hopefully tomorrow we are headed to Catalina for the day :-)

Really really really sad to be at work.
Perfect description.
Super chill, domesticated weekend. Got a lot of stuff done around the house.
We were trying to decide what to do for fireworks, but forgot they went off at nine and were in the movies at that time. Transformers 2 sucked. I am over action movies for this year.
Best part of the weekend: we were walking into the movies, which is next to a park where people were gathering to watch fireworks. I said to my H, "We can go there for fireworks," and he said, "No, it's too family-oriented." This woman turned around and just GLARED at us. We couldn't stop laughing.
Friday: Vet appointment with our foster puppy for his heart condition,divorce drama (better explained in the blog for people who fear I am "too bitter"). Failed crib shopping.
Saturday: Worked around the house, BBQ & fireworks at a friend's house.
Sunday: More failed crib shopping, True Blood marathon from the comfort of the couch.
Socializing foster puppies since 2009

Boo, Monday! I had a fun in the sun weekend in Arizona. Lounged by the pool all day long cocktail in hand, partied as the sun came up, survived the hellish drive for the last time ever (I am flying from now on) and got back way too late last night. I'm barely alive right now. Time to get back to the real world.
The weekend was relaxed and mellow: lots of sleeping in and naps, bbq with the neighbors, catching part of the city's fireworks show from the gates of our complex. Then our refrigerator decided to freak out on us yesterday morning, but seemed to have resolved its issues while we were out watching a movie later in the afternoon. Weirdness, but at least it saves us some $.
This week: Work, work and more work. I have three bench trials, all of which involve kids resisting arrest or beating up on cops. Good times.
weemo always has the most kick-ass weekends.
fri: ran 5,000 errands. me + babies 'r us = wanting to commit suicide.
sat: made a salad, went to bbq/b-day party/4th party. I may or may not have fallen asleep before the sun went down.
sun: chilled
this week: my first full week as a lady of leisure. just woke up from a nap.
. getting my hairs cut tomorrow and I have a dr's appt wed.
